True Love Waits

One night, Sheffield went to a friend's birthday party. It was late when the party let up. The guests were split by gender 5/10-more guys than gals. Gillian was Sheffield's plus one.

And it wasn't clear where they stood. Were they a couple? Sheffield had kissed and held her hand. But it never went any further than that.

But he did want more from Gillian. He even asked her out, and she turned him down. He didn't know whether she was trying to make him want her more, or she just thought he wasn't good enough for her.

There was a BBW (Big Beautiful Woman) at the party. Maybe 160 cm and 75 kg. She was there alone, and no one seemed interested in talking to her. "Hey, guys! I live out in the sticks, and it's kind of a drive. Would one of you handsome gents mind driving me home?" she asked the boys still at the party.

Before the boys could say anything, Gillian said sarcastically to the girl, "Get a load of you! And for you it would need to be a wide load. You think anyone's going to try and assault someone who looks like you? Gimme a break! Try walking. You could stand to drop a few pounds."

Some students laughed, some sympathized with the girl, and some were quite disappointed in Gillian.

Sheffield was very disappointed. When he heard what Gillian said, he thought she was very ugly now. No matter what she looked like on the outside, she was a hideous monster inside. And that was all he saw when he looked at her now. He held the fat girl's shoulder and walked towards the parking lot. "Let's go. I'll give you a ride! I'm sure it's on the way!"

The others watched them leave, dazed by what just happened.

Gillian realized what was happening after a while and called, "Hey! What about me? I don't want to leave yet, and you're my ride."

Then he turned his head and replied, "Call the cops. You're pretty hot, and attract some dangerous attention. I'm sure they'll protect you and give you a lift."

Gillian understood what he meant. Her face went pale.

Since then, Sheffield decided to break up with Gillian. Instead, he started hanging out with another gorgeous girl who studied in another department.

After that, Gillian started actively pursuing him. He would talk to her when he was in a good mood, and ignore her when he was in a bad mood.
